Default Pullback risers

I am looking for pullback risers for my '07 FXDL. I went to a local dealer today and the HD catalog has very limited choices. I am looking for risers that will give me 2" or so of pullback but I do not want much more rise than what I now get with the stock setup. Any suggestions?

I installed these http://www.rivcoproducts.com/product...8&cat=4&page=2 on my 2010 FXDC and really like them.

If you're keeping the stock FXDL handlebar clamp and idiot lights, you will be limited in riser choices. The bolt pattern on the FXDL clamp is straight across, most are offset.

You could try riser spacers which will move things up and back. Or you could try handlebars with more pullback. I think I've also heard rumors the deuce uses the same bolt pattern, might try looking for risers made for the deuce.

x-3, took a few minutes, look good and just the right amount of pullback.

The Rivco risers look exactly like what I want - not much more height but +2" more pullback.

I have a '07 FXDL. The Rivco catalog says those risers fit "FXDL Dyna Low Rider - 1994 through 2006". I need to check with Rivco to see if they will fit my bike or if they have another model of their risers that will fit.

In case they cannot help me, I hope that others can offer suggestions.

I looked at the 2011 HD Accessory Catalog and their choices are limited. According to the catalog, the OEM risers on my '07 FXDL are 4.39" height x 1.61" pullback.

The optional risers they list are:

#56066-82A - Curved 4" risers: 4.4" height, 1.5" pullback
#56266-09 - Curved 6" risers: 6.0" height, 1.7" pullback

What I am looking for are risers that will give me an additional 2" or so more pullback. A bit more height would be ok but not necessary.
